Digressing somewhat, but still on the subject of refrigerated goods and over complicating a once simple process with technology. When I arrived at Lidl today, I had to give way to a lady wheeling a full trolley to her plugged in EV. By the time I had parked and found a jeton and some bags, I looked at the car again because it was a Kia EV6, which I haven’t seen in the flesh in France before. The woman had by now returned her trolley and was getting into the car. I couldn’t help but notice the car was still plugged in and I momentarily thought is she going to drive away? Then thought there must be a safety system that prevents that. Having done the weekly shopping and done my usual deliberating over things I definitely did not need in the middle isle, I exited the shop, unloaded my shopping returned my trolley and drove off whilst observing the EV6 still plugged in and the driver still seated. I would have thought preserving the cool chain would be more important than waiting for your car to fully re-charge?
It would suggest leaving her shopping until a little later may have been a good idea but if the external temp is 5c it’s much the same as a fridge so stuff would be safe for a while at least.

Isn’t a disappointing fridge one that doesn’t keep the food, beer and rose cool?

All fridges are ultimately disappointing.
All they do is sit there. In the new millennium, I would have expected a greater range of functions and entertainment value.
Although for four and a half grand you can get a Samsung one with a telly in it…
If Epson ever decides to make a fridge, run away.
Many of the original monitor top refrigerators made by my former employer , GE, in the states, are still in service, approaching the century mark.
